ARE YOU WEARING A NURSE’S OUTFIT?

 

Are you wearing a nurse’s outfit?

Does it come with all the kit?

The starched apron and the hat

The black stockings and all that

Oh what a feast before my eyes

Come and feel my pulse rate rise

Only you can now tangibly

Cure this poor patient’s malady

I’M THINKING ABOUT TAKING A HOLIDAY # 1

 

I’m thinking about taking a holiday

But I don’t know where to go

However I may end up in Sane

How I get there, I don’t know

As they don't have an airport

You can be driven there though

LIKE A GAGGLE OF GEESE

 

Like a gaggle of geese

The hen party traversed

The gaudy Blackpool strip

From bar to bar

And club to club

The tarty group

In their shameless parade

The legless slappers

Ended the night

Even more undignified

Than they had begun it

“If that’s possible”

Sitting in the gutter

In their own piss and vomit

I REMEMBER LIKE YESTERDAY

 

I remember like yesterday

That cold and crispy morn

And just how proud I felt

On the day my son was born

TOM SHARPE RIP

 

He wrote Vintage Stuff

Of Riotous Assembly

And Indecent Exposure

He liked his Porterhouse Blue

In The Great Pursuit

And was no Blott on the landscape

Nor was he The Throwback

With Ancestral Vices

And in the end he didn’t die

It was just a simple case of Wilt

IT’S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY AND I’M SEVENTY THREE

 

It’s my birthday today and I’m seventy three

And I’m fit as a fiddle, nothing wrong with me

Although my memory's not like it used to be

And also my memory's not like it used to be

MY WIFE SAID I WAS NOT MYSELF TODAY

 

My wife said I was not myself today

Which I thought was a funny thing to say

But then she went on to say to me

She noticed the improvement immediately
